Psalms 121

1 A Song of the Ascents. I lift up mine eyes unto the hills, Whence doth my help come?

He waiata; he pikitanga. Ka anga atu oku kanohi ki nga maunga; no reira nei te awhina moku.

2 My help [is] from Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,

No Ihowa te awhina moku, no te kaihanga o te rangi, o te whenua.

3 He suffereth not thy foot to be moved, Thy preserver slumbereth not.

E kore ia e tuku i tou waewae kia nekehia; e kore tou kaitiaki e moe.

4 Lo, He slumbereth not, nor sleepeth, He who is preserving Israel.

Ina, e kore te kaitiaki o Iharaira e parangia, e moe.

5 Jehovah [is] thy preserver, Jehovah [is] thy shade on thy right hand,

Ko Ihowa tou kaitiaki, ko Ihowa tou whakamarumaru i tou matau.

6 By day the sun doth not smite thee, Nor the moon by night.

E kore koe e pakia e te ra i te awatea, e te marama ranei i te po.

7 Jehovah preserveth thee from all evil, He doth preserve thy soul.

Ma Ihowa koe e tiaki i roto i nga kino katoa; mana e tiaki tou wairua.

8 Jehovah preserveth thy going out and thy coming in, From henceforth even unto the age!

Ma Ihowa e tiaki tou haerenga atu, me tou haerenga mai aianei a ake tonu atu.
